標題 | MOENV Preannounces draft amendments of 2 Regulations of Continuous Emission Monitoring System for Stationary Sources to Enhance Real-Time Air Pollution Monitoring |
摘要 | On 21 August 2024 the MOENV preannounced the amendment drafts of the Management Regulations for Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS) for Air Pollutants from Stationary Sources (固定污染源空氣污染物連續自動監測設施管理辦法) and the Stationary Pollution Sources Required for Installation of Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems in Public and Private Venues and System Links to Competent Authorities (公私場所應設置連續自動監測設施及與主管機關連線之固定污染源) (referred to as the CEMS-required pollution sources). Responding to recent public concerns toward air pollution issues derived from use of resource circulation fuels, such as solid recovered fuels (SRF), and thermal treatments of hazardous industrial wastes, these amendments will serve to expand control targets for real-time information of pollutant emission status, intensify controls on pollution monitoring, and properly carry out pollution preventions and controls. |
全文 | The MOENV explains that the first through fifth batches of CMES-required pollution sources have been gradually announced since 1993. This time, the sixth is added to include stationery sources where resource circulation fuels are used or hazardous industrial wastes are subject to thermal treatments. The aim is to align the key strategy of resource circulation and zero waste promoted as part of international net-zero trends and also respond to possible air pollutions from converting wastes into energy. It is specified that, in addition to existing list of CEMS-monitored pollutants, large pollution sources where resource circulation fuels are used shall monitor carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen chloride (HCL), both with potential pollution risks, just like incinerators are required to do so. On the other hand, pollution sources adopting thermal treatments for hazardous industrial wastes are subject to control by treatment size to ensure proper pollution source management while promoting net-zero strategies. With the sixth batch of controlled subjects added, it is expected that the MOENV will keep track of more than 70% of sulfide oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted from nationwide stationery sources via CEMS. The MOENV stresses that addition in the draft amendments allows city, county, and municipal competent authorities to extract collected data and handle system inspections regarding approved monitoring facilities as well as enhance existing management systems. For pollution sources with major violations of the Air Pollution Control Act (空氣汙染防制法), the local competent authorities may be authorized to designate such sources as a target required to be connected to CEMS so as to monitor their pollution emissions in real time. The purpose is to stay on top and ensure that those committing major violations properly prevent and control pollution in the follow-up improvement according to relevant regulations and avoid repeating violations. |
